Heh h...Wow, I need to reply to comments more often. Heh heh.<br /><br />Sella - Well, that's a bit harsh. Haha. I think it just wasn't her taste ... which means she probably wouldn't be a good agent for me, anyway. Errrrrr I disagree. Unraveling is quite a mess––at the moment anyway. But I haven't touched it in months. I'll have to get back to it. Eventually. >_< Well … uh … it WAS the same old story. Heehee. I still wish you could live in my basement, too. :(<br /><br />Amy - Hahaaaa. No idea what that means but uhh cool … ? Too bad it didn't work out. :P Although she said she'd look at revisions soooo I should get back to her once I finish editing WS again.Brigid Gorry-Hineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15481935746189946137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5364337739890543904.post-69456007353116192632010-08-03T23:29:27.784-07:002010-08-03T23:29:27.784-07:00You are going to get represented by the Veritas Li...You are going to get represented by the Veritas Literary Agency.

I mean, she made a usage error in one of the emails she sent you ... what kind of literary agent is she? :P Haha. And don't give up with the Jason guy. He said that you should send him your next project. He will love Unraveling! Or anything else you write. :) Walking Shadow just wasn't for him.<br /><br />AND YOU GOT A REQUEST FOR A FULL! THAT'S AMAZING!<br /><br />Hehehee Happy Story = Me love. Of course. ;) Brigid it's so amazing being here with you. I don't want to leave in a few days. :( I will miss you.
